Insect Screen Types
Fixed Frame Screens
Permanently fitted to the window or door frame. The most affordable option and ideal for windows that do not need to open and close frequently.
Retractable Screens
Roll away completely when not in use. Ideal for doors and windows where you want the screen invisible when not needed. Clean lines, no visual clutter.
Sliding Screen Doors
Run on a smooth aluminium track alongside your existing sliding door. Easy to operate and maintain. The most popular choice for patio and kitchen doors.
Pet and Wildlife Screens
Standard insect mesh does not stand up to cats, dogs or South African wildlife. Pet and wildlife screens use a heavier stainless steel mesh that resists claws, impact and sustained pressure without tearing or distorting.
The same fresh air and visibility you get from a standard insect screen, built to take the daily wear of a large dog or the occasional encounter with a monkey or baboon.
Key features:
- Tear-resistant stainless steel mesh (0.55mm)
- Withstands claws, jumping and sustained impact
- Stronger aluminium frame construction
- Full visibility and airflow maintained
- Suitable for cats, dogs and wildlife areas
- Monkey and baboon resistant in bushveld properties
- Tear-resistant stainless steel mesh (0.55mm)
Security Screens
Security screens combine insect protection with genuine security performance. Marine-grade stainless steel mesh at 0.9mm resists cutting, impact and forced entry while still allowing a full breeze through the opening.
Frames are lockable, and the diamond-pattern mesh is impact-resistant. These screens are insurance-approved and suitable for high-risk properties, ground floor installations and any home where security is the primary concern.
Key features:
- Marine-grade stainless steel mesh (0.9mm)
- Impact-resistant diamond-pattern weave
- Lockable aluminium frames
- Full airflow and partial visibility maintained
- Insurance-approved options available
- Custom sizing for any opening
- Marine-grade stainless steel mesh (0.9mm)
